Cat On The Couch

My cat, washing her tails tip, is a whorl
Of white shell,
As perfect as a fan
In full half-moon...
Next moment she’s a hare:
The muzzle twitches, blurs, goes dumb, and one
Tall ear dips, falters forward... Them,
Cross as switches, she’s a great horned owl
; Two leafy tricombered ears reverse, a frown
Darken her chalky visage, big eyes round
And round and stare down midnight.
There sits my cat
Mysterious as gauze, -now somnolent,
Now jocose, quicksilver from a dropped
Thermometer, when poised
Below the sketched ballet-
Dancers who pirouette upon the wall,
Calmly she lifts the slim
Boom of her leg, what will
The prima ballerina next
Perform? - Grace held in readiness.
She meditates a vision of repose
